Several papers were presented at the bar, by officers from the Bank and the Treasury—viz. an account of the market price of gold, and course of exchange during the last frier years at ilamburgh and Paris;—an account of the Hank-notes in circulation at certain periods of each year from 1790 to 1826 inclusive ; —an account of the number of bankruptcies in En g, land from February 9, 1019, to February 9, 1826, distinguit,h• ing bankers; also the number of bankruptcies . from 1793 to 1797, distinguishing bankers; an account of the number of Heenan for issuing promissory notes, granted from 1790 to 1796, &c. Petitions for the Abolition of Slavery were presented by the Duke of Richmond front Chichester ; by Lord Kenyon from Falmouth ; and by Lord Bexley from Maidenhead. CORN LAWS. The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition from cer. tam inhabitants of Sussex, against any alteration in. the Corn kawh_ 'The Noble Duko stated that the petition weaeitoeteLete of 2200(1. The Earl of LAUDERDALE regretted that petitions of this kind should be brought forward, and the country agi tated on the subject of the Corn Laws, after his Majesty's Ministers had distinctly stated that they did not intend to do any t hing on that subject in the present session. After this declaration, it was surely unnecessary to agitate the question In anyway. The Duke of RICHMOND observed, that the • agitation of the question was not the work of the petitionere. Ile under. stood that in the other House of Parliament, an individual had given notice of a motion on the subject of the Corn laws. In his opinion it was very proper for all England to petition on this subject if they thought fit, and he certain ly could see no reason why the petitionets, who were so deeply interested in the question, should withhold the exercise of their right. The Earl of LAUDERDALE had been misunderstood by the Noble Duke. He agreed with the petitioners ; but he had such confidence in the declaration of his Majesty's tees, and such confidence in their influence over both Houses of Parliament, that he had no fear of any alteration being made in the corn laws at present. He therefore thought that per sons in the situation of the petitioners should reserve them. selves until another occasion—that they should abstain from petitioning until next Session, when the time would arrive to pronounce with energy those sentiments in which the owners mous, and which ought to he e xp ress ed w ith e qual unanimity and occupiers of land, he w a s su r e , wo u ld be found ottani by the manufacturers, if they knew their own interests. BANK C H A RTE It BILL. The Earl of LAUDERDALE rose to state what appeared to him to be the circumstances in which the house stood with regard to the very important question which was at Prevent fixed for to-morrow. Several Noble Lorde had moved for such • information as they thought necessary, before the second read. ing came on ; and it was highly desirable that their Lordabips should have, and that the public ehould have, everyy . possible information on the subject before the discussion took place.-- Now, how stood the information which had been moved for ? The most important part of it had only been delivered that day, so that it was quite impossible that it should be printed and plaCed in the hands of their Lordships In time for conside ration W 411 ° 1 ". He believed that only that part of the infor mation which the Noble Earl himself hail thought necessary was yet before the House. Ile had himself moved for several accounts which were not yet on the table. He therefore called on the Noble Lord to say whether he thought it right to 'wo wed with the measure, in the face of the House and in the face of the country, with this deficiency of information, when no papers but such as he moved for himself were yet printed— when the rematuder of those produced could not be laid on the table toonorrow, and when a great part or.the. returns moved for were not yet delivered. 1 he Noble Lord would !lately feel that the expeditious forwarding of his measure was nothing in • import a nee compared with the necessity of the country knowing that their Lordships lied carefully .deliberated, and had had time, decent time, to examine and digest the information before them. He therefore entreated tire Noble Lord not to push on this measure, the of which had already created dieeetesien so much agitation in the country, and might produce die. turbance. The Earl of ',lv Eitrool , crust differ with the Noble Lord in the view he took of thi s subject. A considerable part true that the information •moved q of Ue t s t t l i e on in h tb ar alrea lkn dy tiee been "s3T many for throwing a due light on th e iany days before the House, and was printed. It was certainly for by the Noble Mary opposite, had only been brought u p that day, anti that further information moved for by windier N oble Lora, w hi c h wa s of a still more extensive nature, had not yet been Produced. tint with regard to all that description of information, the Noble Lord must be aware that it had long Since become matter of notoriety . The returns made that day reepectingbank rotes and bank r up tcies h ad been produced else. where, or were to be tliund in various books and-publications.— It was the same with respect to the prieiti of gold and the ex. changes - . He therefore 000 not think that the Noble Lord had suggested any ground for putting off the p rocee di ng w hi c h had been fixed for to-morrow , e nd which w as not the ultimate de cision,but merely the o p en ing of the measure. Th e mov in g o f th e IM reading was the first stage of discussion, and the `tale hare would have the opportunity of vbt a i ning the information he required before the pin passed through its ti t h er s ta g es . Il e was always reads, to consu l t the personal convenience of any Noble Lord, if he could do so cons istently with his public ,he agitation duty e but on the present occasi o n , if, min dike measure, the im% been sa id, the country was disturbed by the best thing that could be done was to settle the question as'apou AS possible, consistently with a full and fair discussion of the question. lie could. not COMM to delay the second reading on the grouod or mere convenience, tint he lied nowieh to press the progress of the Bill iv its subsequent stages in any way which might not leave full opportunity for the most deliberate consideration which could be desired. The Earl of LAUDERDALEIittd been, in the other House and their Lordships', a Member of Parliament for more than 40 years, and he had always understood that the second read ing of a Bill was the time for discussing its prineiPle. Nay, the Noble Lord himself had in th a t Ho use often argued, that by agreeing to the second reading of a 13111, their Lordships berme pledged to its principle. It seemed, however, that all this doctrine was now to be done away, and that the second 'reading of a Bill was to be merely the opening measure. He did not plead for delay from a wish to consult any personal convenience of his own. He was as ready to go 'into the dis -mission now as he would - be on Monday. But delay was surely of comparatively little importance to the puld;c being assured that their Lordships were to proceed to the discussion with com plete'information, and after having been allowed foil time to digest it. The Noble Lord thought that hastening the deei trim on the second reading wAs the only way to quiet the coun try. But if the public arrived at a. right understanding of the measure—and it would not be his fault it' they did not under. stand it—they would be ten times more agitated after the diS cussion than they were now. EXCIIMZITER. BILLS. The Marquis of LAp'SDOWN could not h e lp o b serv i ng that he should regr e t t tetiteimenee-of any eircumstanee which might cause the Noble Earl opposite to postpone the statement of his views relative to the'commertial situation of the country. He rose, however, to ask a questiou of considerable importance, which, perhaps, the Noble Earl might answer in his statement to-morrow ; but not being sure howlar the point might come within the scope of the Noble Earl's - observations on the second reading of the bill, he chose to put it now, as it was a subject on which it was impossible not to feel some anxiety. pc. wished to know what was the nature and extent of that im portant engagement into which his Majesty's Government had entered with the Bank of England, and in consequence of which purchases were now making in Government Securities. He supposed the Noble Lord could have no hesitation in stating what the nature and extent of the engagement was, either now or to-morrow, as might be most convenient to himself. --- TbeEatl of LIVERPOOL intended, on the second read. ing of the bill to-morrow, to state fully the grounds of the transaction to which the Noble Marquis had alluded ; but he had not the least objection to answer now, in a general w a y, the was question dou btle s w s aware hichilad just been put. The Noble Al arqu i s that there were a number of projects afloat for giving relief to the present commercial distress by issues of Lxchequer-bills on the part of the Government..... He, however, had thought it his duty, as did the persons with whom he acted, to give, for reasons which he should explain to-morrow, a positive refusal to all applications ibr any measures of this description. At the same time his Majesty's Government was most desirous to contribute to the removal of the Etisting . distress by any relief which might be given, without violating the p!inctple which had beea laid down that Government should not interfere 11y making . any advances. It was also necessary to take care that it should not be said that the .Bank was hampered by any engagement which m4:lit be entered into for this object with the Government— it had therefore been thought advisable to state to the Bank, that if they came forwtrd to give relief to the commercial dis tress by taking a certain quantity of Exchequer-bills out of' the .market, Government would be content to aid the operation by submitting to Parliament the expediency of providing for the repayment of 2,000,000 of such bills. Government would he prepared within a short period to apply to Parliament to make good that sum, so that the Bank would not be subject t o tuly nconvenience. The AI arquis of LA NDSDOW NT—ls the agreement a gene ral engagement between the flank and the Government, or is.it limited to two millions only ? Earl of LIVERPOOL—The engagement is to the ex tent or two millions and uo more, subject to the approbation of Parliament. ~.„,nriadirVlSO.nr4ll ..10101 1 fithAru, hrntorht n mennain , ten the their Lordships which satlast session on tho siste of ram!.

The Sheriffs again appeared with a petition front the Lord Mayor and Court of Aldermen, which Mr. Alderman WOOD,. in presenting, took occasion to observe, that something had been imputed to him which he never had spoken. In the de. bate last night, it was stud that he bad made some allusions to the Court Of Aldermen relative to a sum of 111,000/. Exchequer Bills. Now he (the .worthy Alderman) being quite aware that he had not alluded to the subject at all, had taken the trouble to look into the newspapers to find if he had been so misrepre. rented, but he could not find in all the papers a single allwAin to the subject ; he therefore_.. The SPEAKER was sorry to interrupt the worthy Abler. man, but really he could not perceive the connexion that ex isted between the mistatement complained of and the yeti. lion which he (Alderman Wood) was about to present ; per, haps the worthy Altlennan would explain the connexion.

IRISH CHURCH AND PARISH RATES. sir JOHN NEWPORT had. in the last Session drawn the attention at the House to the mode in which the Parish and ! Church Rates had been collected in .Ireland. A measure on this stab.icat,,ethiell igineted In that House to Correct t h e ev il s o f the system, he was sorry to see, had' been stripped or every chtuae in the other House, : which could controul the existing abuses in the collection of parish rates in Ireland. Salaries nes;ur, by possibility, contemplated, had been given to Church officers, so as, in fact, to increase the rates. The House would be surprised to learn .that .the summary mode of appealing against overcharges for rates was entirely annitted in the Bill. The rate of the parish clerk's salary itad been proposed to be limited to ten pounds, whereas the average rate in most towns amounted to twenty pounds. In One pl ace a h ouse had been built for the cl e rk, and another fOr the sexton, at an expence of 4301. out of the p a ri s h rates . This, it should be recollected, was mostly paid by R oman Catholics. Even charges were made on those persons for a throne for the Bishop a dress suit for him, besides his canonicals. Parish servants of various kinds were charged against the parishioners, whether' Catholics or Protestanta, at 201. or even 301. a year. Similar charges were made for female servants to attend on the congres gation. In one instance they voted 1431. to the clergyman fig minor services, as lecturer and teacher. where the regular salary was not • more than 1201. a year. This was so great a depar ture from the objects of the Bill which had gone through their House, and so contrary to the spirit which prompted the measure, that he thought it was necessary the !louse should mark its sense of the extreme impropriety and .neglis gt'nce in the enactments of this 11111 by a resolution which he should read at the conclusion of his speech. fie was the more the Irish (70dvnecrettilmteonftn make this and also application to the 1 1 1 1 1 ::n is . e l.i b e e t= en in his place, expressed a determination to regulate the imposition of the Church rates according to a fixed and invariable rule throughout all the parishes in Ireland, so as that they should all have it common standard by which they might be regulated. He must confess he felt pleasure in admitting, fin the sake of his Protestant fellow countrymen in some parishes in Irelend, that there were some congregations of Protesta n ts w h o were perfect.. ly indignant at the practice, and had insisted on exempting t h e Catholic part of the parish from any part of the expence of maimaining either the Clerk or the Sexton. And in some in.. stances the Clergyman -himself had insisted on hearing the ex pence out of his own limited stipend of the Sacramental bread and Wine.. The lion. Batonet concluded his Speech by Ivey., lug its a Resolution, " That from detailed returns which had been laid oa the table of the House, it appeared that large sews of money were levied on account of Church Rates which were not warranted, and' that salaries were granted thereout to Parish Officers, contrary to and prohibited by Statute it. gulation." Lord ALTHOR PE rose to second the motion. It had been said by the Right lion. Gentleman last year, that it was the the i l e'e t ts n 'tßll gm t rarnall i . nu eMs "14% nowthirdvile ment should stave made up its mind as to its intentions. - and that the House should be trails acquainted with them. What the Right Hon. Gentleman might have to propose, possibly was very excellent ; but there might be aomething suggested try other Members, which would be still more desirable. lie should therefore bee the Right Hon. Oentleman to state, before he made his objections to the motion, what were the measures of relief resolved on by the Irish Government for ameliorating the condition of that country. .51r. GOULBURN said, before be should enter into the • reasons for his opposition to the present motion, he should ene ter into a rather detailed consideration of the different heads of recommendation contained in the Report of the Committee which sat on this subject. The first recommendation he should have no occasion to observe on, further than to state his e nti r e ' satisfaction, and that of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, with the salutary operation of the uwasure founded on the recommen dation of the arrangettent for the composition Of Tithes in Ire land. So salutary and satisfactory had that been found by the •public, that last year there were 269 .comporitions agreed on, while in the present there were not less chum 076 co:1100d ill, forming one-fourth of the whole parishes of Ireland. Nor were the effects of these compositions confined to these parishes alone, but they had extended themselves benefici ally through other parishes, wo as to occasion an amicable adjustment of tithe questions amongst themselves and the improprintors. A circumstance resulting from this fact was worthy of mention, as . a proof its tendency to improve the con dition of the people and secure the public peace. It was the gtowth or feelings of good will manit'ested by the result of th e last Quarter Sessions for the county of Cork, where it wry found this attention in the law had diminished the causes fulle one half of their former number.—( Hear l)—The constitution of the Manor Courts had next occupied his attention and that oe the Lord Lieutenant, and a remedial measure would be accords ingly submitted to the House. this Session on the subject. lie anottld SW have a Bill to propose for the .correction of abosea in a more effectual service of civil process in Ireland.--(flear i) and another on the subject of corporate rights. Of the nee cessity of a Bill for regulating the right to sit as Grand Jurors. he was equally convinced. but there were diflicolti e s which stood in the way which rendered it less likely lie should be so easily or early able to accomplish this as other objects he had alluded to.

It was his intention to introduce Otis Bill to the Muse it.,4 • soon as it had been sufficiently slowed and examined. fl, there , ► fore, there were any difibrencebetween him and the Right Hon.

Bart. all his as s i s tance to remedy the real evil of the 'triton in fashion in Ireland, and this'', he trusted, was n proof dins sincere disposition to co-operate in the suppression of abuses which he believed in Ireland grew principally out ofthe unbusinesslike and negligent way in which all bodies of weft in that country treated their own affitirs- who met at vestries and parish meetings. There was indeed often no intention of doing an Act of injustice, or displaying partiality in those instances which had been alluded to by the Right Hon. Baronet, Who, if he had examined the 'Returns with as much care as he had been obliged to do, would have found in the items to which parish rates were applied a considerable su m a ppr opr iated to the building or repairinti of a Catholic Chapel, or to the assistance of a parish priest. there was then no ground to charge thenm generally with such a feeling as might be deduced to be their. motive, from having beard the Speech of the Right liOn. Baronet. It was now particularly desirable that a remedy should be devi s ed by the introduction of a valid anti ynbst:Th. tiV, measure; and if the Right lion, liarnnet would consent to withdraw his motion, he would tak e the liber t y isi substi tuting what would equally answer all :purposes—a notice of motion for leave to Wing in a Bill Which would rth:. h e hoped, the whole extent of the evil..
